Grrrr - or rather lack of it !!!

And why are long standing customers given the rubbish deals while 'New customers only' get the tempting golden carrot on a stick ???

Just called Virgin Media to query something on my phone charges - helpful to a small degree, but they can only provide back dated call lists for 3 months which isn't much help when i am querying charges over 12 months.

Then at the end i mentioned that as an O2 customer i can get a really good deal on their broadband.

I pointed out that it was about half what i pay currently to be told 'there's no deals i can offer you' ............ and then he had the cheek to tell me that, that wasn't 'ridiculous' - which my response!

So i said it was - because new customers are getting offers of half price deals or lower, and existing customers just get shafted with high charges.

He said if i wanted to disconnect my service i'd have to speak to Customer Relations - did i want him to put me thru??

No i said not just now thanks - anything else he asked - No i said ......... and he just terminated the call without a word - HOW RUDE ! ! !

If it wasn't for all the hassle involved i'd be withdrawing my custom immediately.......... so if anyone here works for Virgin Media - please pass on this unamused customers feedback - thanks !!
